Mercury and the Moon

The skies were clear on Wednesday for another day, although not quite as clear as Tuesday morning. I hauled out the 8" Orion and got a shot of the moon and mercury. Venus was in the finder but too far away for the 25mm eyepiece. Jupiter and it's moons was also a nice sight this morning as well. The time was about 6:30 am and the skies were clear with just a bit of haze on the horizon. Mercury wasn't quite as visible to the unaided eye as it was yesterday. I took pictures and will upload a couple when the server starts behaving.
